You used to write my name
In the fog on your glass
Now it’s just a thumb
Scrolling right past
Coffee going cold
On the same old stone
Two cups on the table
One heart on the phone

Less love
More lines on the screen
Less touch
More space in between
If you don’t want me
Just say it
Don’t fade it
If you don’t want me
Don’t string me
Just break it
Less love
Than the echo in my room
Less us
Than the shadow of your perfume

You used to talk all night
Tangled up on the floor
Now your voice comes late
And it leaves at the door
Laugh tracks canned
Where the real ones lived
You ration out your truth
Like you’re scared to give

Less love
More lies we don’t tell
Less fire
More flicker in the shell
If you don’t want me
Just say it
Don’t fake it
If you don’t want me
Don’t bend it
Just break it
Less love
Than the echo in my room
Less us
Than the ghost of your perfume

You say “I’m just tired”
I hear “I’m halfway gone”
Every little silence
Feels one day long
If you’re already leaving
Don’t turn down the light
Cut this cord clean
Let me breathe tonight

Less love
More air I can breathe
Less weight
When you finally leave
If you don’t want me
Just say it
Don’t save it
If you don’t want me
I’ll learn how to face it
Less love
But I’m finding something true
Less us
But I’m coming back to me
Not you
